#1 The Chicken Dance is great after many pitchers of good German beer during Octoberfest in Munich.

#3 Tell him the military downloaded the song for free from Napster and watch Lars really twist his panties in a knot.

#4 I'm not sure if you have seen Billy Wilder's great Berlin movie ONE, TWO, THREE (1961), in which James Cagney is an executive for Coca-Cola in Berlin, who has to deal with the commies on one hand, and an out-of-control bosses daughter on the other. The East German police uses the same methods: They play "Itsy Bitsy Teenie Weenie Yellow Polka-dot Bikini" until the accused confesses to be a CIA spy and working for Wall Street. Maybe the music method isn't that reliable.
Unfortunately they had methods in the East that worked better.

#5 Anything from their new album would be much more torturous than that.

#6 Indian music videos. I've seen some of them on the International Channel. They'd make anybody spill their guts.

#8 tu3031 is dead wrong about saucy Bollywood videos. (Perhaps they're an acquired taste).

Dick Saucer is almost right about K-pop vids...except the romantic ballads are more mind-wrecking than the boy bands can dream of being.

#9 Pink & Fluffy,
You are right about the romantic ballads being worse(big time), but as an American I was abiding Article [VIII.] of the constitution in regards to cruel and unusual punishments inflicted (unless it was dropped when TGA amended the constitution to get us into the ICC). The ballads are so horrid the performers can't get through them without committing suicide, hell, now they start with morbid deaths so you can revel in all the misery without any fear of happiness....ever. And what's up with the choreography, crimes against humanity indeed. Someone please, hit them with a joy stick.

#10 TGA, thanks for the memory. That movie's name I just couldn't remember. If I remember right, the bad guys even played the record off-center. Please, people, don't try this at home.
